Darbar Indian restaurant with its prime location in midtown Manhattan, right in the heart of New York city, and with their numerous dishes of great cuisine, is a superb choice for good food and ambiance. Besides the traditional, korma and tandoori preparations the kitchen experiments with trans-ethnic fusion dishes like Maine crab cakes, and potato croquettes stuffed with goat cheese. Make sure to take advantage of our lunch buffet special, where we have, seafood, lamb or goat, chicken, vegetables, salads, and much much more. We hope to see you soon.

A Great Find

by PrincessKatja

Read the recommendations on Citysearch while in town on business in the neighborhood. Boy, were we glad we checked it out! Terrific food in a nice setting and just-right service. Everything was delicious. I don't usually like pappadums, but theirs were excellent. Even my husband's martini was just to his liking.

Pros: Fresh, tasty food and good service

Cons: ?

Need to check this place out

by Jenniferleigh77

The food is FRESH and you can taste it. You may wait a few minutes longer than you would somewhere else, but there is no comparison...this place has it down.

I am trying to get the word out so people check it out...the food and atmosphere is PERFECT-O.

They have a great, quiet and elegant bar as well - a nice place for a date, drinks after work, meeting, or night with friends...spread the word.

Pros: Best Indian Food Ever

Cons: More people need to go

Best in Town

by nandanapathiraja

Darbar Grill has the best Indian food that I've eaten in all of New York City. The buffet lunch is the best deal in town With 6 Salads & Appetizer,3 Desserts. The decor and service are impeccable. I will definitely continue to bring friends here to experience some really high quality Fine Indian cuisine.

Keep Up the GOOD WORK Guys

Cheers

14 thumbs up!!

by JohnGroger

I am from California and a big fan of Indian food. I asked a local to recommend a good Indian restaurant. They took me to this new place. We were a group of 14 people. From the time we entered to the time we left they were extravagant!! It was not so busy but I guess, because they are new, they weren't. I would definitely visit this place whenever I am in New York City. Tandoori Lamb Chops and their Reshmi Kebab (besides other stuff) was mouth watering!! I wish they would deliver to California. : D

Pros: Beautiful Ambience and very friendly people

Cons: Not in California (yet)

Simply the Best.

by manjumehra

Have been a loyal patron of Darbar but wanted to give a shot at their new venture Darbar Grill @ 55 st. Oh boy,Oh boy,what a pleasant surprise it turned out to be. We were 4 of us & 2 of us ordered their Tasting menu. My Husband ordered the vegetarian and I ordered the meat one. Trust me, for $35, the food and the presentation was fantastic! The food kept on coming and at one point, we wanted to give up, but since it was so good, we kept on eating like pigs! My parents had ordered the Scallops, Malai Kofta, and Dal Makhni, and they felt they were eating in India (they are visiting us from India)! The only problem is, I don't know which one to go to... Great Job Guys! Keep it up!!

Pros: Great food, great ambience, and great service

Cons: There are none!!!

One of the Best Indian spots in NYC! A must try!

by TrishLanni

I use to go to Darbar on 46th Street for lunch when my office was close and was SOO happy to see that Darbar Grill opened on 55th street. The new location has a very nice interior and the lunch buffet was the bomb. I love Indian food, especially for lunch and this is by far one of the best lunch buffets in the city. Very reasonably priced too.

Pros: New, reasonable, Tasty

Cons: None!
